the part of Old Sandford , we desire to attach no blame to that gentleman for not producing a result which we believe him to be physically incapable of effecting . His first entrance gave us great hopes , "but as soon as the Audience began to _ laugh , this excellent comedian , very naturally , forgot the pathetic side of his character , and exerted himself to amuse everybody in his usual Eearty , genial , irresistible way . The consequence was that the vast majority of the spectators were all roaring with laughter , just at the time when the pathetic and breathless interest of the drama—the gradual breaking of the news of the son's escape to Ida mother—began to rise , by slow dramatic degrees , to its grand climax . The whole credit of restoring the audience to their senses and of making them feel the real pathos and beauty of the play , belongs to Madame Vestris alone . Some seasons ago , this lady astonished those who were not aware of the versatility of her talents , by her admirable serious acting in The Day of Reckoning . The impression she then produced sha strengthened immensely on Thursday night , by her performance of the part of the mother . At the critical point of the play she awed the laughing audience into silence ; and as the scene proceeded , she did more—she < lrew tears from them . Such true , quietly mournful , exquisitely unaffected acting as hers has , not been seen on the English stage for many _ a long day . The another ' helpless , hopelessgrief—then the first dawning interest and-,, perplexity—the faint suspicionthe agony of vague hope—the oppression of growing certainty—the final ecstacy of delight , —all these gradations of emotion were expressed with a patios , and truth to nature which told powerfully on the audience , and ensured the success of the play . It is a real pleasure , on welcoming Madame Vestris back to the stage , after lier long illness , to be able to congratulate her on having achieved , under circumstances of great dramatic difficulty , a genuine dramatic success . ; la relation to the -other performers we have only to add that Miss Hughes and Miss Oliver looked and . acted very prettily , and took evident pains to do their best . The play was carefully got up , and the
" stage business , '' excepting one or two unimportant slips , proceeded as neatly and smoothly as usual at this well-managed theatre . Madame Vestns was heartily recalled at the fijl of the curtain . Tfr

THE ENGLISH GLEE AND MADRIGAL OTION . Thjb first concert of the season took place on Monday last at Willis ' s Rooms , and was fairly attended . The loveis of old English Bong were gratified b ^ the style m ^ hich their never-to-be-forgotten favourites were xlerformed--such as " Blest pair of sirens , " " Biscord , dire sister , ' or " TVlienwinds breathe soft . One of the best things of its kind is Dr . Cooke ' s glee and chorus , " Hand in hand , with fairy grace , " which was charmingly sung . For this composition the voices an the chorus were numerous eaough ; but in some others we should have been glad of more voices—and if of as ' good a quality as those already possessed , so much the better . Our friend Vivian and others have said odious and despiteful things against the British tenor . We ourselves have often agreed with -them cordially ( under Harrisonian . provocation ) , and bave felt that Italy is your only country for the growth of tenors . But we never hear Mr . Lockey sing , as he can sing and did sing on Monday , without feeling that he too is a tenor , —rich , clear , full of the true timbre , and not in the least Brummagem . Not a tenor for Italian opera , perhaps—no Mario , certainly—such a tenor would be too fine for every-day purposes , and one would like to keep him for Sundays and holidays , "if , * as Rosalind says , u one . might have another for work-a-days . And , in that case , our tenor for -work-a-days would" be Lockey . , Mrs . Lockey and Mrs . Endersohn , Philips and Hobbs , sang with knowledge and feeling . The quality of their voicesi is too well known and too generally approved in the concert-room to need any comment on the present occasion . - : •/•• .. Hatton ' s glee , " The hunt is up , " is very spirited , and deserved its encore . His performance of Handel's " Harmonious Blacksmith' * on the pianoforte was an agreeable interlude . , F x .

CORN MARKET . Mark Lane , Friday ^ Evening , June 10 . Local Tbaj o ^ . —Tbe supplies of , . all , Qjain are . moderate . The unfavourable accounts of the weather and the crops from France , and the revival of the demand for that country , holders ask an advance , of 2 s . per quarter on "Wheat , at which advance a good business has been doue . Barley without alteration . Oats meet a steady sale aft Cd . per quarter advance . Fbbe ojrBoAjnx— There has been ho Improvement in the demand for . England since on * last , impqrters continuing , to act with , extreme caution . The purchases which have been made for French account in England and Belgium have caused the holders "in the ^ Baltic ports to . ask higher rates ; but in the absence of any increase in the demand , these have not been obtainable . The Trench markets continue to advance- Considerable purchases of American FIout have been made here and in . Liverpool for Fren 6 h , account . The markets iu the United States continue without much alteration . There ) are very unfavourable reports of the growing crops in Virginia-The answer of Sir James Graham to Mr . Horsfall on Tuesday night fully bears out the remarks made in our last , relative to the blockade of the port in the White Baltic ana Black Seas : viz ., that the blockade had commenced in the two latter , and that in the former our ships were only coasting- to bo joined by the French squadron . Some large transactions had taken place in Archangel produce before this announcement , but holders will not how sell except at much higher rates . Wo have little doubt , however , that the contracts made will be executed , as the vessels are on the way , and will most likely bo loaded before the blockade commences . Floating Tba : db . —Tho past has . been a lifeless week . in floating cargoes . There arc very few for sale ,, and those offered consist chiefly of Egyptian and other low qualities of Mediterranean , for which there ia no great demand at present . Some demand exists for these qualities for tho Continent , but not in cargoes . Somo sales have boon readily made free on board at tho prices a . bovo noted .

MONEY MARKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE . Friday Evening , Jua-e 16 , 1854 . Abteb a storm comes a-calm—and since the settlement or the Consol account , there has been very littlo variety in the funds . Money being easier , good prices have been sypported . and tho few- BeaTs" that are left musk look blank enough . . Whether the enduring and powerful of that party , indeed , may not see land ahead ia a question .. Here wa have Prussia and Austria about to join the Western Powers in appearance , and that may . send Consols up for a titn « . Bat is it so certain that these Powers will be as good as their word—or is t 3 ) eir ultimatum despatched to St . Petersburg a fact or a tnoio ruse—to give tho Czar breathing time and baffle his opponents , Franco and England ? A reverse in the pobrudsclia , or a general action—say only drawn—will « n ta . il fresh outlay and renewed expenses , ancl the'Chancellor of tho Exchequer may have a pill in preparation tobe administered before the House of Commons breaks up , in tho shape of a loan or a fresh issue of Exobiequer- 'biHa . The question Is what real success have we as yet obtained-Have not tho operations on tho Circassian coasi been anticipated by R / ussiaP A now Russian loan is talked of ia Holland , and that amphibious race has always been ready to give credit to tho successors of Petor the Great . Hallway shares have been very firm- both foreign and British . Crystal Palaces have met with a groat fall—that undertaking would siiem to bo out of favour for the time La . nd Companies maintain their value ; aud Chartered Join t-Stcck Banks are inquired after . Mining shares vcryjlat ; the faith of tho public in Californian gold mines seonaa likely to be greatly shaken ; tho Nouvoau Mondo report ha . s opened tho eyes of speculators ; Peninsula mine have beon dealt in . Mr . Hitclnns and one of tho directors are now oh tho spot—which would indicate that they think well of this property . Obomhofs have had thoir mooting — and tho directors maintain that , notwithstanding tlio great outlay , they will be in a position in six months time to pay a dividend of 18 p « r cent , on thoir capital . Port Ifcoyata threaton to bo as good as St . John del Roy , and have been dealt in at advanced prices , since tho Wost India mail arrived . Imperial Brazil havo roocded again , in tho a . l > - soiico of remittances , and tho report or tho wonderful Ynootinga not being confirmed . This morniug'ti prices arc not quite so good ; yet money la said to bo easier , and th « ( rontirimital i \ ews no worso .
